  • Yesterday ended up being a much busier day than expected! I had an appointment at the Boston Running Center, so I drove into the city to meet with my new coach. (Our meeting went really well! More on that later!)

We both chatted about our love for good quality dark beer and it’s health benefits. Here is Lauren’s guest post on her latest home brewed batch. (p.s.

Which means all I want to do is sit in my backyard with some friends in the sun, play some volleyball, eat hot dogs and hamburgers, and drink an ice cold brewski.  As do a...
